Giving another props to technology here tonight! 🙌🏼
If you ever wanted saw something online that you wanted but could not figure out how to have it shipped to Hong Kong, KEEP READING 👇🏼
This has happened to me sooo many times. There so many things in North America that I want or miss and cannot get due to shipping limitations. 💔
But then I found ZipX.com.
Their site lets you shop in other countries like the USA, EU, France, and Japan and have it shipped to your door in Hong Kong. Very, very quickly too! I ordered Klay’s birthday present (the 100 pieces @magnatiles) 🎁
If you can’t see it on the site, just copy and paste the link of what you are looking for to their search bar and they will help you calculate how much you it would be to have it shipped right to your door 😌
Right now they are offering my fellow YOU GUYS a special deal: a free box of ZipX Masks with everyone’s first purchase!
All you have to do is use the refer code MANDYYUEN when you sign up (or use this link to sign up: https://zipx.com/account/signup?r=MANDYYUEN)
📦📦📦📦📦📦📦📦📦📦
Who can say no to a free box of masks in this current era?!
😷👍🏼

Are you ready for the motherload?
WE ARE ON DAY 18 of self-quarantine and still really like each other! Here are some of our favorite play ideas that we've loved doing as a family and independently.
WE GOT THIS, MAMAS!!!
***
SENSORY
***
Oobleck (cornstarch + water)
Playdough (recipe saved under my highlights on ig @rachealkwacz)
Simple dough (flour + water)
Slime (recipe on ig!)
Organic slime (psyllium husk + water heated up)
Ice (add water, add salt, add food coloring, freeze it w a toy inside, the list is endless!)
Baths (bubbles, bath bombs, "swimming", use your sand toys, kitchen tools, etc)
Sily putty
Blutak
Clay
Mud (soil and water)
Clean mud (shredded paper + soap shavings + water)
Shredded paper
Newspaper
Jello
Rice
Barley
Beans
Lentils
Shaving cream
Sand
Salt
*Food sources are a precious commodity at the moment (we haven't been to a grocery store!) so we've really been conserving all our dry goods for however long we might need to quarantine for which means we're really rotating between just a few things (water, soil, slime, etc) so don't worry about having to come out with something new everyday. They are honestly happy to play with the same medium, it allows them to come out with different creations and explore deeper!
***
MOVE
***
Dance party
Yoga
Zumba
Stretch
Hide and seek
Treasure hunt
Obstacle course
Balls
Balance board
Bubbles
Jump rope
Bicycle
Scooter
Stairs
Jumping on the bed
***
ARTS & CRAFTS
***
Coloring - there are a ton of cool printables including a very fun one from sereni & shentel
Paint
Paper mache - glue w paste made from cooked flour and water
Markers
Cards
Stickers
Glue
Cutting
Different textures of paper
Cardboard painting
Honestly, Ella Grace has a little art table so she really just leads this. We just make the materials available for her and she comes out with some gems! My best advice however is for painting or anything that's "messy", let them paint in the shower! We strip her down, she paints on the glass to her heart's content, the clean up and hosing it down is part of the fun then a shower after! No stains on clothes, no worrying about wet paint or where to hang all the artwork later and best of all, minimal clean-up!
***
ROLE PLAY
***
The sky is the limit on this one and honestly, the world (or anything she can find within our four walls) is her oyster
Dress-up
Costume jewelry
Blanket - she has a soft bamboo muslin wrap from when she was little that she uses for everything. It's probably her most used toy in the house she plays w it so much - cape, hat, skirt, scarf, etc
Forts - use flat sheets or blankets and pillows and see what you can build with what you have!
Cardboard - build a robot suit or an entire landscape!
Restaurant - there's an instruction leaflet from a game that Ella Grace likes to use as a "menu" which again goes back to…use your imagination! You don't have to have a "kitchen" to play cooking!
Salon - hair, facials, manis, pedis, even daddy gets to have a go!
Construction - one of our favorite things to do is just build. We recycle old egg cartons, boxes, packaging materal, magnatiles - Bueno Blocks has an incredible selection of open-ended toys!
Real life - honestly this the best and total win-win! She helps me cook, cut, prep, mop, sweep, vaccuum, make beds, wipe, clean, etc and is actually a really big help!!
***
ETC
***
Reading (she does a lot of this both independently and together as a family)
Writing/activity books - this is really optional. Our ethos is play is learning and learning has to come from within so we don't push "school" at all. She has a bunch of workbooks gifted from various places that she likes to take out and work on whenever and we just allow it to be part of free play and because it's not a "chore" she loves it
Pretend cooking show!!
Podcasts (refer to previous post for our extensive list of favorites!)
TV time - she has set tv time while I make dinner and her favorite programs are Hi-5, The Wiggles, Fireman Sam, Paw Patrol! We also do movie night once a week and it includes snacks and lots of cuddling!
Gardening - grow a little patio/balcony garden. We planted some cilantro roots and sprouted onions!!
Friendship bracelets
Make a jumprope!
Learn a new language or skill
Picnic on your balcony if you have one or a pretend picnic in your living room!
Balls - seriously, there are so many things you can do w ball! Ella Grace had an entire afternoon of fun and made-up games by herself with just a little wooden ball and basket.
Mostly, just remember this. It's okay if they get bored. In fact, allow them to be. Remember the ball and the basket story? She had so much fun because we've actively allowed her to just explore, be creative, be bored, use her imagination, and not micromanage or set up all her play for her. The key to surviving and even thriving(!) isn't to plan out every second of their day, the key to surviving MCO is to trust her and allow room for adventure and fun. Be flexible. Freedom within boundaries, mama.
The only way through is to do it together and sometimes that means having her play by herself while I work and the other times, it means really checking in, being present, and playing along with her!
That's the secret.❤
Share the love with your mama tribe! xx

Good morning!
Here's a little sample of our RMO schedule! We're technically on day 17 of voluntary self-quarantine and have a little routine going-on which has been so pivotal to everyone's sanity!
Having a structure helps to manage expectations allowing for lots of freedom within boundaries, a key principle of Respectful Parenting. It helps everyone take ownership with a semblance of control over all the things we can't control!
One of the big things (that I highly recommend!) we did as a family when we knew we would have to potentially self-quarantine for 4-6 weeks with our family medical history as well as with my work travel was sit down as a family and talk about what was important to us.
We live in a 1500sqft apartment and haven't left these four walls. 😅😅❤️ We have a balcony but other than that, we've not gone to other public common areas which made it very important that we make our home, a safe, loving, fun, haven instead of prison walls.
The best way for success was for all of us to talk about what was important to us. What we needed on the schedule to find our happy.
For mama and daddy, it was making sure that we had set time for us to work and for Ella Grace, she wanted to have morning meetings and a few other special mentions like morning snuggles, cooking together, play time.
This is by no-means a be-all ends-all, it will look different for every family depending on what you and your littles find important. The key is just that with a structure and framework, it allows everyone to breathe and create, have fun and be present without worrying about what's happening next which is especially important for little ones.
This schedule while very thought out, is flexible. We don't micromanage at all and there are no set times where something has to be done at a specific time (outside of her medicine schedule!). Listen to your gut, mamas. It's your superpower!
Ps. Can you tell which part of the day this picture was taken?
I wrote it up on our "command center" which are these giant sliding glass doors that we have in our kitchen. We use chalk pens and write our favorite quotes, grocery list, schedule, family goals, etc and it's easily wipeable!
On the left are "special" things that we get to do by the day along with suggestions on play ideas if she's stumped and on the right, our running schedule that I want to reiterate again, looks very long and complicated but is just more of a loose framework and structure!
***
The pyramid you see is something is an intuitive tool-based one-on-one family private session I teach using science-based emotive drivers to help you find what's important to your family, what you want to achieve, and the tools to get there.
It's great for families wanting to get a clearer and on the same page on how to reach their mama and daddy goals and something that has radically changed the way I love, lead, and mama! If you’re interested in signing up for it after Covid is over, come have a chat w me!

RMO SCHEDULE
❤️ Morning snuggles
A loving quiet start for everyone, good morning hug or snuggles or just quiet time together as they wake up
❤️ Make breakfast with daddy
Ella Grace's favorite time w daddy - they make coffee and breakfast together. While not limited to this, because breakfast is usually her choice, I also list down some options to help her.
❤️ Medicine
Ella Grace has daily medicine that she has to take so putting it on the schedule helps her get a sense of what happens when since much of our routine has changed. It also helps everyone not forget!
❤️ PLAY!
Such an important part of her day, we allow for lots of time for free play and exploration. She plays independently and happily while daddy and mama work.
Her favorite options include dress-up, role-play, restaurant, construction, magnatiles, podcasts, games, art table, dancing, scooter, forts, obstacle course, sensory etc.
She has free run on our little apartment and her imagination is her limit. Freedom within boundaries!
❤️ Movement
We try to move together as a family everyday for at least 20-30mins of vigorous activity. Movement helps your brain get to a theta state which helps with focus and understanding new information which is great for both adults that need to work and littles that need to play and learn!
Movement when you're shut it also helps regulate your hormones and keeping your body active will not just help you feel good physically but also mentally.
Some of our favorite ways to move together are family yoga, dance party, zumba, workout video, HIIT circuit, etc
❤️ Morning snack
Studies have also shown that a good snack or meal after activity helps little ones to sustain this theta state longer.
Also, mama is hungry and doesn't want to be hangry!
❤️ Morning meeting
This was beautifully one of the biggest requests Ella Grace wanted when we asked what was important to her. It's a little circle time that she usually has at school and it gives everyone safe space to come together, talk about what's on their mind or what's happened, as well as sets up expectations for the day by going through what day it is, what our plans are, etc.
❤️ Play/work
Another space to independently work and play and using some key Respectful Parenting principles after connecting (morning meeting, family movement, snack etc) to disconnect.
Fueling up their love tanks allows this space to largely remain uninterrupted, productive, and happy!
❤️ Lunch
We usually have a simple lunch - sandwiches, wraps, leftovers, soup and rice, one-pot meals, etc
❤️ Nap
Ella Grace cleans up and changes into her pjs for a little nap after lunch. She has a little eye mask and sleeping bag that she drags out to the living room sometimes to be close to us while we work or she might take a nap in her room or our room.
Our boundary is just that her body has to rest so we are quite flexible and work with her so she feels like she has some amount of ownership in it which helps with cooperation!
❤️ Afternoon snack
We take a little break together and have an afternoon snack/tea/coffee and just check in with one another (there's that connect to disconnect again!)
❤️ Play/work
Ella Grace usually spends this time playing but mostly lots of movement-based play like dancing, scooting, rocking/jumping on her balance board, etc
❤️ Cooking/TV time
I start preparing dinner and Ella Grace usually will help me cut, wash, etc and when she's done helping, she gets a little tv time while I finish up. Her favorite shows currently are The Wiggles, Hi-5, Fireman Sam, Paw Patrol
❤️ Dinner
Mealtimes are special for our family. It's our chance to connect and eat together so we try to really be present. Put our phones away, sit down at the table or if we're having dinner outside, on the mat or bench together, set up and clean up together so it's a family activity.
❤️ 20-min shakedown
This is a fun clean-up game that we play at the end of the day. We set up a timer for 20mins and quickly try to clean up as much as we can.
The only rule is that at the end of 20mins we stop and walk away. It makes the clean-up less overwhelming and also elicits participation from everyone because there is a certain end time that doesn't get extended no matter what, making it much easier to get everyone to participate the next time too.
You'd be amazing how much we can get done in 20mins! In our little apartment, having free reign to play throughout the day allows us to not have to micromanage but also not go nuts from the mess. We pick up here and there throughout the day but the 20min gives us a nice reset for the next day while making it not feel like a big task.
❤️ Movement
We usually have some sort of movement - epic dance party is one of our very favorites. If it's been a very busy tiring day, we might play a song and stretch, meditate or do wind down yoga instead. There are no hard and fast rules, just again time to move and listen to our bodies.
❤️ Bath/Shower
Ella Grace takes her own shower and this is also usually when she brushes her teeth, takes her medicine, etc.
❤️ Night Meeting
Similar to morning meeting, it's a little circle to come together and debrief from our day together. We usually play Happy/Sad/Grateful which is the highlight for everyone. We do a little breathing and love shower after, read a few books then end with prayer before Ella Grace goes to bed and mama and daddy get some mama and daddy time!
Hope this helps!
